Well actually many (all?) of those parallels are also true of Japan in WWII, which did far worse things than Nazi Germany, but you NEVER hear of those. The Nazis are like God, if Nazis (or God) didn't exsist, someone would have had to make it/them up.

10 Stunning Parallels Between The United States And Nazi GermanyMost citizens of this nation know that something has gone deeply wrong, and I would suggest that just like the Nazis, all of the pageantry and beauty in our society masks an evil which has grown to a level that is almost unspeakable. And just like the Germans, we don’t do ourselves any favors by turning a blind eye to what is going on. 10 Stunning Parallels Between The United States And Nazi Germany - Freedom Outpost

OMG, Amerika is on the express elevator to hell!!! Amerika is so like Nazi Germany, that there doesn't seem to be much difference....or so the author of the tosh laden Freedom Outpost article referenced in the opening post would have us believe. Ten stunning parallels?? More like 10 stunning instances of propagandist misinformation.

The (Hitler) regime also cracked down on abortion, imposing tough requirements for pregnancy terminations on medical grounds and harsh penalties for illegal abortions. Propaganda described abortion as a “crime against the body and against the state”.Women in Nazi Germany

(2) This also is not a case in favour of "pro-choice", It being more a case of Statist population control : Discouraging "non-Aryan" population growth in favour of "Aryan" population growth.

Regardless of whether or not abortion was immoral in the Nazi context, abortion was not, in the Third Reich, a "pro- life" or a "pro choice" issue, it was simply a matter of State policy in maintaining the State's racial purity ideology. The parallel to contemporary American society is at best a tenuous one, if at all. Is the American Government marching pregnant undocumented / illegal aliens to abortion clinics to keep the foreigner's numbers down??? If so, I've not heard of it.

(3)It is interesting that this claim is baldly asserted without any evidence being offered to support it whatsoever. Snyder does not cite any direct linkage between Sanger's work, and Hitler's policies with regards to abortion.

"...In the interest of historical accuracy, here are Sanger’s feelings about Hitler in her own words:

“The first thing I want to say in relation to my attitude regarding the present War and World Peace is that before Hitler came into power in Germany I was one of the few Americans who joined the Anti-Nazi Committee and gave money, my name and any influence I had with writers and others, to combat Hitler’s rise to power in Germany.”

“When Hitler got into the saddle and burned all books he considered (not immoral) but dangerous to the State, my three books were destroyed and have not been allowed to circulate in Germany. The publisher and translator were put into concentration camps and I have never heard of them since.”

It would seem that Hitler wasnot guided by Margaret Sanger's philosophies, nor had they even met. (despite the scurillous suggestions of some "pro-life" memists). For Sanger's part, she did not support Hitler, indeed, Margaret Sanger opposed Hitler and Nazism.

“The most merciful thing that a family does to one of its infant members is to kill it.” (4)
Now compare that line from Sanger to this statement from Hitler in Mein Kampf…

“The demand that defective people be prevented from propagating equally defective offspring. . . represents the most humane act of mankind.” (5)

Equating a Margaret Sanger quote, extracted out of its context, with a brief quote of Hitler's, drawn from Mein Kampf is quite a stretch, but a stretch that Michael T Snyder Michael T. Snyder - RationalWiki seems to be comfortable in making. It is a false equivalency however, and logically fallacious False Equivalence | Truly Fallacious .

"...The direct relationship between the size of the wage-earner’s family and the death of children less than one year old has been revealed by a number of studies of the infant death rate. One of the clearest of these was that made by Arthur Geissler among miners and cited by Dr. Alfred Ploetz before the First International Eugenic Congress.1 Taking 26,000 births from unselected marriages, and omitting families having one and two children, Geissler got this result:

Thus we see that the second and third children have a very good chance to live through the first year. Children arriving later have less and less chance, until the twelfth has hardly any chance at all to live twelve months. 8 This does not complete the case, however, for those who care to go farther into the subject will find that many of those who live for a year die before they reach the age of five. 9 Many, perhaps, will think it idle to go farther in demonstrating the immorality of large families, but since there is still an abundance of proof at hand, it may be offered for the sake of those who find difficulty in adjusting old-fashioned ideas to the facts. The most merciful thing that the large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it. The same factors which create the terrible infant mortality rate, and which swell the death rate of children between the ages of one and five, operate even more extensively to lower the health rate of the surviving members. Moreover, the overcrowded homes of large families reared in poverty further contribute to this condition. Lack of medical attention is still another factor, so that the child who must struggle for health in competition with other members of a closely packed family has still great difficulties to meet after its poor constitution and malnutrition have been accounted for...... "5. The Wickedness of Creating Large Families. Sanger, Margaret. 1920. Woman and the New Race

Click to expand...

It is clear from the context of the Sanger quote, that she is not advocating for infanticide, or even abortion. Margaret Sanger is pointing out the very evident reality, that large families, among the poor and destitute in that era, did not provide a satisfactory quality of life for those children who managed to survive infancy, beyond the first year. Such children were often doomed to a squalid existence in an overcrowded home, poor education, child labour and exploitation, and poor health outcomes among other lifestyle issues correlated with poverty. It is intellectually dishonest of Snyder to compare (as somehow equivalent) the Sanger quote with that of Hitler's.

(5) This quote of Hitler's from Mein Kampf, also needs to be read in context....

" ...Only after these measures are carried out can the medical struggle against the plague itself (Syphilis) be carried through with any prospect of success. But here, too, there must be no half-measures; the gravest and most ruthless decisions will have to be made. It is a half-measure to let incurably sick people steadily contaminate the remaining healthy ones. This is in keeping with the humanitarianism which, to avoid hurting one individual, lets a hundred others perish. The demand that defective people be prevented from propagating equally defective offspring is a demand of the clearest reason and if systematically executed represents the most humane act of mankind. It will spare millions of unfortunates undeserved sufferings, and consequently will lead to a rising improvement of health as a whole. The determination to proceed in this direction will oppose a dam to the further spread of venereal diseases. For, if necessary, the incurably sick will be pitilessly segregated - a barbaric measure for the unfortunate who is struck by it, but a blessing for his fellow men and posterity. The passing pain of a century can and will redeem millenniums from sufferings..." http://www.mondopolitico.com/library/meinkampf/v1c10.htm Mein Kampf, Vol1 - Chapter 10 A. Hitler

In context, in the Mein Kampf quote, Hitler is not advocating abortion, involuntary sterilisation or involuntary euthanasia, but the prevention of the spreading of congenital syphilis by segregating syphilitics from the general population. Syphilis at that time had no reliably effective treatment until the development of Salvarsan in the early 1900's, with Penicillin not becoming becoming the definitive treatment from the 1940's. Syphilis was often fatal, after a long debilitating illness, and frequently comorbid with insanity. Open Collections Program: Contagion, Syphilis, 1494–1923

It is clear that Snyder's sandwiching of two disparate, quotes out of context, is misleading. A matter of intellectual "copy and paste" laziness, or a matter of deliberate intellectual dishonesty? Both are distinct possibilities.
..........................................................................................................................................................................................................
Snyder concludes the section on Abortion with the following:

Just like the Nazis, our disregard for human life is absolutely appalling. (6) Even after the American people were shown clear undercover video evidence that revealed that Planned Parenthood is chopping up aborted babies and selling their body parts to the highest bidder, (7) one survey found that only 29 percentof Americans wanted to cut off the hundreds of millions of dollars that Planned Parenthood is getting from the federal government every year. (8)

(6) Snyder's inference that America shares an absolutely appalling disregard for human life, similar to the Nazi Third Reich, beggars the truth, and flies in the face of reality. His evidence? Some questionable claims, made by a couple of anti-abortionist activists who allegedly broke the law in the process of contriving a covert sting.

Is America exterminating millions of racial undesirables in concentration camps? No. Is America implementing a program of slave labour similar to Germany's Third Reich? No. Is America, as a matter of State policy conducting programs of involuntary euthanasia to eliminate the mentally ill or the intellectually feeble? No. These are but some of the hallmarks of Nazi disregard for human life, through active policy intervention under Nazi rule. Snyder's claim fails to establish any kind of parallel to Nazi German atrocities.

(8) Snyder cites these statistics, as if only 29% of Americans support defunding of Planned Parenthood (PP) of Federal funding is bad thing. WTF? What Snyder does not understand, is that the 71% who oppose Federal defunding are the ones who have the nouse to understand the consequences of such a policy.....

Would defunding Planned Parenthood increase the number of abortions being performed.?....YES!

Reducing the capacity to provide sex education would result in increased instances of unwanted pregnancies.Reducing the capacity to provide reversible contraception, would increase instances of unwanted pregnancies.

"...When it comes to funding Planned Parenthood and family planning services generally, the government gets a lot of bang for its buck. The Guttmacher Institute estimates that publicly funded family planning services prevented some 2 million unplanned pregnancies in 2013, 693,000 of which would have ended in abortion. The best way to lower the unplanned pregnancy rate, and by extension the abortion rate, is to fund contraception and the other services Planned Parenthood provides. It's about the most fiscally conservative policy around: For every one dollar invested in Title X family planning funds, the government saves $7. And that funding is pro-life in every sense of the word: Not only do Title X funds prevent abortions, but they also fund cervical cancer screenings, saving the lives of more than a thousand women every year..." Defunding Planned Parenthood Is the Opposite of "Pro-Life"

(9)To claim that America has become an "evil nation" is in my view, a gigantic overstatement (on the part of Mr M.T.Snyder). I don't know what Mr Snyder hopes to achieve by demonising his own nation, but it is not quite the kind of patriotism I'd expect of an American citizen...............................................................................................................................................................................................................Conclusion: Item #9 on Snyder's the list of "Stunning" parallels between Nazi Germany and the USA (Abortion) is a pile of BS that doesn't stand close scrutiny. However, uncritical minds, will undoubtedly applaud it anyway. (Perhaps they may be found among the 29% of the US population who are prepared to support the defunding of Planned Parenthood)

I don't think you have quite mastered the concept of parallel....but zhit slingin' is definitely your forte!

1. Hitler's re-armament and infrastructure programs turned Germany's economy around....much of the economic miracle attributed to Hitler was achieved at the expense of extorting vast amounts of wealth from European Jewry, and the expropriation of resources from countries that Nazi Germany at captured and occupied. Hitler was no great economic wunderkind....just a thief on a grand scale. The Third Reich's position as a world power was brief, culminating in Germany's utter destruction and occupation by foreign powers. How is that something to be lauded over?

2. Unless I am mistaken, the USA is still a world power, and, although the road to massive sovereign debt had been well and truly laid by Obama's predecessors, as I understand it, nobody has occupied the USA, as the USA, USSR, France, and Great Britain did of Germany, post WW2.

3. Hitler did not just rant about certain racial minorities, he embarked on a systematic campaign of exterminating them utterly from existence. He was also quite comfortable with exterminating significant slabs of racial majorities also.....if they stood in his way of his absolute political control. Jews, Gypsies and Slavs weren't the only inmates in concentration and slave labour camps. Aryan Jehova Witnesses, Seventh Day Adventists, Social Democrats, socialists and Communists et al, were also very eligible for tattooed arms.

4. It's your claim, but I'd be interested knowing to which particular rants about certain racial majorities you are referring.

5. Get it right: Hitler's involuntary sterilisation, and involuntary euthanasia programs were aimed at achieving the racial purity of the Aryan master race. Preventing babies from being born, was a means to an end...not an end in itself. He was much less concerned with maintaining the racial vigour of non-Aryan races. Hitler's main concern for non-Aryans was as a source of slave labour to be ruled and exploited.

6. What happened to Obumma?? You have been tag teaming Uncle Adolf with Cousin Barrak in comparisons 1-4 and now you bait and switch Barrak for (Margie Sanger) Planned Parenthood (PP)? What gives? The sterilisation procedures performed by Planned Parenthood are voluntary and legal. The abortion procedures performed via PP are also voluntary and legal ( in terms of Roe v Wade). A couple of anti-abortion activists (David Daleiden and Sandra Merritt) allegedly tried, unsuccessfully to entrap Planned Parenthood, but their attempted sting blew up in their faces. Several judicial and legislative investigations have been conducted, investigating Centre for Medical Progress's (CMP) allegations that Planned Parenthood had broken foetal tissue laws, and found that Planned Parenthood hadn't broken any of the laws that The CMP alleged that it had.

The rest of your reply is exceptional (as usual), but this part I have trouble with. Much of this portion of history as well as many others, was written by historians who, let's just say, were on the winning team. There's actually much more to this story, but because of the stigmatic persona of anything "Nazi", very few dare to question it. The Jews even have their own phrase for anything they find offensive, and they call it "antisemitism". And the event is known by the word, "holocaust". It reminds me of another abuse of power gleaned from auspicious circumstances --namely, the Catholic church. I believe we can all comprehend the real meaning behind the use of "heresy" and "blasphemy".

Did 6 million Jews really die?

Just one of many, many holocaust hoax documentaries (picked at random):

Regarding the 'six million' number, it helps to know the following: In the Hebrew text of the Torah prophesies, one can read "you shall return". In the text the letter "V" or "VAU" is absent, as Hebrew does not have any numbers; the letter V stands for the number 6. Ben Weintraub, a religious scientist, learned from rabbis that the meaning of the missing letter means the number is '6 million'. The prophesy then reads: You will return, but with 6 million less. See Ben Weintraub: "The Holocaust Dogma of Judaism", Cosmo Publishing, Washington 1995, page 3. The missing 6 million must be so before the Jews can return to the Promised Land. God sees this as a cleaning of the souls of the sinful people. The Jews must, on the return to the Promised Land, be clean -- the cleaning shall be done in burning stokes. -link-

Click to expand...

There are also documentaries of some actual "holocaust" survivors, who were interviewed and when questioned, not one of them actually ever saw what they thought. Yet, Hitler's program to "get rid" of Jews included mass emigration to what's known as Israel. Many Jews were moved from transfer facilities to larger camps, not executed as the Jewish holocaust survivors claimed. More Jews died from typhus than anything else. I'm not condoning what was done. I am only trying to clarify one of many myths about WWII in Nazi Germany. We could also choose to discuss the millions of rapes which occurred when Russia took over Berlin, or we could discuss Stalin and the tens of millions he slaughtered (just 10 million over the course of one winter when he exported his own people's grain for profit and they starved to death) --but Stalin was a friend of Roosevelt, favored in the American Press (which was bought by wealthy industrialists and Zionists at bankruptcy auction in the 1920's-30's) and he was also an ally. I suppose his crimes will forever be swept under the carpet, no special terms assigned for his atrocities, no people proselytizing his chosen religion, and nobody defending the people he mercilessly slaughtered, which far outweighs the (mostly fictional) death toll created by Nazi's.

The long road to the Holocaust is a hotly debated topic from many sides of the issue. Those Jews in Germany and Western Europe who had money and overseas connections and could see the writing on the wall, left early while the going was good. Those who did not have those resources or stayed too long in the belief that things would get better, unfortunately became trapped, and many of them did not make it through to the end of WW2.

Yes, some did make it to Israel, but not as many as has been suggested by some Holocaust revisionists. The British still had control of the mandated territory of Palestine, and were not keen to upset the applecart with the Arabs, by allowing an imbalance of population through accepting boatloads of Jews fleeing Germany. Indeed, The Nazis exploited much propaganda from the experience of the MS St Louis, when the mostly Jewish passengers left for Cuba, just a few months prior to the commencement of WW2. MS St. Louis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Both Cuba and the USA denied them entry, and ultimately the passengers were mostly turned away to mostly European refugee sponsors. Many did not survive WW2.

"Of the 620 St. Louis passengers who returned to continental Europe, we determined that eighty-seven were able to emigrate before Germany invaded western Europe on May 10, 1940. Two hundred fifty-four passengers in Belgium, France, and the Netherlands after that date died during the Holocaust. Most of these people were murdered in the killing centers of Auschwitz and Sobibór; the rest died in internment camps, in hiding or attempting to evade the Nazis. Three hundred sixty-five of the 620 passengers who returned to continental Europe survived the war."[20]MS St. Louis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

My wife's grandfather died in Auschwitz in early 1945. He was a pretty resilient fellow...given that he sustained a debilitating gunshot wound to his shoulder whilst serving the Kaiser on the Eastern Front in WWI. He was rounded up with other Jews when the Germans occupied Vichy France in 1942.

Thanks Chelloveck, coming from you that is quite an honor! Usually people are trying to attack the truth, and it is good to see someone who appreciates the hard work I put in.

You might also check out the LIFE Mag from 1916 (OK, 1918 anyway) to 1920 and 1943 to 1946. Of course since Life Mag is a well known right wing hate filled rag, I wouldn't take much notice of what they claimed during and after the war, such as the photo of the young boy in the 1943 and 1944 issues in the letters to the ed column (don't worry, you will know it when you see it and then read the follow letter and photo. Makes interesting reading).
